Hello, I am the Store Manager for our Woodturning Club.
I got the bright idea that having sets of eight screws for
the common chucks would be good for members. I just
left FASTENAL and they could not match up my screws
for my ONEWAY & NOVA chucks, the Nova has a small head.
My question is, What size are the screw to hold the jaws
onto the NOVA & ONEWAY CHUCKS? Where can I get them
in bulk. Thanks in advance, Kevin

For the Nova it is M6X10.
As important as the size is the quality; the Nova's are either 10.9 or 12.9 hardness.
Unless someone anticipates losing a lot screws I think I would go with a smaller quantity (2-4 each). Packard has oem Nova screws for $4.95 for set of eight.
